Wind Screen effectiveness??

I jsut bought a CLK and the wind screen is missing. I realized on my first interstate ride just how TERRIBLE this vehicle is for wind noise with the top down (much worse than my vette), and now I'm wondering if it's worth it to buy a wind screen. How much does it help?

thanks

Bought a new 40" flat panel TV yesterday. Put it on the floor, behind the front seats and removed the windscreen to keep it from being damaged.

To my surprise, at 70 MPH, the box worked just about as well as the factory windscreen.

Your question has been asked many times before.

If you 'search' the forum, you'll find that the windscreen is a must have.
